Ukehe Amazon Ladies Demand Justice for 10-Year-Old Chiziterem After Aunt’s Abuse

Chiziterem, a 10-year-old boy, lies in hospital after being beaten by the aunt he was sent to live with. His schoolbooks wait in his classroom and his friends miss him on the football field. No child should ever suffer such wounds. The Amazon Ladies Association of Ukehe condemns this cruelty and warns parents: never hand your underage children to anyone as “househelps” or wards. Hardship is no excuse to give up your right and duty to protect them. Child abuse thrives in silence. Neighbours, community leaders, faith groups and social welfare agencies must speak up whenever they see or hear abuse. The Amazon Ladies are monitoring Chiziterem’s recovery and pledge ongoing support for victims like him until every Nigerian child can grow up safe and free from fear.
